You can create accessories that are
only used within the current estimating job. Remember
that all labor and material costs associated with the accessory will be added to the
estimating job.
Note: We recommend that you create, modify, and delete
accessories in Accessory Maintenance. You can also create accessories in an estimating job, but these
job-specific accessories cannot be saved to the accessory library, so they
cannot be reused in other estimating jobs.
